As far as I know there was no donation, all cars in the museum were bought
outright. If you look at the aucton site you will see almost all the cars that
were there. From both the temp showroom and the storage buildings.

In a way that really sucks to be honest.. A piece of history that it would be
very cool to see gets donated i assume and correct me if i am wrong by the
owner so it can be a piece of history preserved for all gets auctioned off I
assume the a portion of the proceds go to the person who donated it but
betting no..sigh.. Hopefully the donors got a monster tax write off in the
beginnig.. How can you put a price tag on Al's streamliner or a lot of the
others cars bikes and rolling art there???????
